Winter Rose

The cold is coming on the wind is moaning high above the frozen days are long, let's build a fire, my love When winter's gone will you still keep me warm? When dark skies clear, will you leave with the storm? Outside, our noses freeze a chill comes whistling through in drifts up to our knees, hot when I look at you When winter's gone, will you still linger on? As spring arrives then where will you be found? The snow floats gently down each white lace flake unique There's no one else around and we've no need to speak The sky holds icy stars that gleam against the crystal blue the city lights are far and I'm closer to you When winter's gone, will memories stay long? When icy streams thaw, will I be alone?
